And here are the breaking news.

P.S. Is not just for soccer


"After so many cancellations, adjustments, and other changes over the last year, SYC operations have started to return to something resembling normal. This has been good news, and we would like to add another piece of exciting and positive news to that general trend.

SYC has begun work on a new home to open this fall. While our current space has served us well, we have been looking for almost a decade for a venue that can be more than just office and storage. We wanted a place to host youth sports events, train our young athletes, and generally create a youth sports hub for our members and our community; and we believe we’ve found it. The new facility is located in Southern Fairfax County in the heart of the area served by SYC, approximately two miles from the club's current office.

While plans for the new facility are being developed and the final build out depends on many factors, some of the amenities under consideration include:
a 32,000 square foot gymnasium with space for four multipurpose courts and a 200-meter track
a weight training facility
a 5,000 square foot turf training area
expanded office and meeting capacity
an in-house physical therapy facility
other sports-related features and services

Some of you may be aware of youth clubs on the west side of Northern Virginia with similar facilities, this will be the first of its kind for a 501(c)(3) youth club in our immediate area.

I hope you're as excited as we are by the news! In the coming weeks, we'll keep you abreast of our planning and progress. Until then, enjoy the rest of your summer."
